(SoapOperaNetwork.com) — “One Life to Live” issues a new casting call and other casting tidbits.

The new audition script is for the role of “Patty.” The scene opens in “Alan’s” apartment with him introducing her to his brother “Jeff,” referring to her a friend from work. Jeff thinks the name Patty suits her, since she works at a fast food restaurant, which causes Patty to laugh a little. Alan reveals that Patty is currently enrolled in law school and has a bunch a student loans to pay off. Jeff excuses himself to get cleaned up, saying “Jamie” may be stopping by later. Patty offers to take Alan back to her place for a quiet chat, but Alan says they’re okay where they are.

Alan asks Patty her professional opinion on whether a single father would have a realistic chance of gaining custody of his child, even if the child was living with the mother’s family. Patty responds that a parent’s rights outweigh those of other relatives. Changing the subject, she says that she wishes she would have brought over a change of clothes, so she could take off her hamburger costume. Alan says she can wear one of his t-shirts and a pair of sweatpants. Feeling frisky, Patty asks Alan to help her get out of her costume. Alan, however, says he wants to talk more about his custody case. Feeling defensive, Patty says she is aware of his reputation and was hoping they could fool around a little. As the scene ends, Alan says he’s sorry, but that he has no interest in her romantically.

While the names in the script have been changed, it seems fairly safe to assume that “Alan” is Ford, “Jeff” is James, and “Jamie” is Starr, and that this is involving Ford continuing to pursue custody of Ryder.
